Hilal, Adnan Yaser Adnan; Bozkaya Schrotter, Bengü; Akıntuğ, Bertuğ; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2021-2-11)
Increasing world population and industrialisation lead to a rapid rise in water consumption and demand. As a result, both surface and sub-surface water resources were overexploited in most parts of the world, including Northern Cyprus in the Eastern Mediterranean region over the past years. In this study, the spatial distribution and temporal variation of daily, monthly, seasonal and yearly rainfall patterns in Northern Cyprus are analysed using Concentration Index, Precipitation Concentration Index, Season...

Water management in Istanbul
Altınbilek, Doğan H. (Informa UK Limited, 2006-06-01)

The population of Istanbul grew at almost twice the overall rate of the whole of Turkey because of a large in-migration. The projected water demand was underestimated and Istanbul experienced severe water shortages in the early 1990s. During the last decade US$ 3.6 billion of investments were made to improve and expand water and wastewater systems. Several large-scale water transmission projects were s...
Water quality, pollution and conservation
Yetiş, Ülkü (2006-10-12)
This chapter presents the main water pollutants and their impacts on the environment as well as the water quality parameters (physical, chemical and biological) that are used in water resources assessment and management. The water quality of river, streams, lakes and groundwater is reviewed. Remediation and preventive measures are also examined. Water conservation practices and its effective use are analyzed for system users and system operators.
